The mercalli scale was made by Giuseppe mercalli he was born in milan.
The Mercalli Intensity Scale is a measure of earthquake intensity experienced at a given location. The Kobe earthquake in 1995 had intensities reaching up to VIII (8) on the Mercalli Intensity Scale in the heavily affected areas around Kobe.
The Richter scale measures the energy released during an earthquake through amplitude of seismic waves, while the Mercalli scale measures the intensity of an earthquake based on observed effects on people, buildings, and the environment. The Richter scale is a logarithmic scale ranging from 1 to 10+, while the Mercalli scale is a descriptive scale ranging from I to XII.
The highest rating on the Mercalli scale is XII, which indicates total destruction and extreme devastation with waves noticeable on the ground.
The Richter scale measures the magnitude of an earthquake based on the energy released at the source, while the Mercalli scale measures the intensity of shaking felt at a specific location. The Richter scale provides a single numerical value for an earthquake, whereas the Mercalli scale uses a descriptive scale from I to XII to quantify the effects of an earthquake on people, buildings, and the environment.
The Mercalli intensity scale measures the intensity of shaking and damage caused by an earthquake. The intensity of the Sichuan earthquake in 2008 was estimated to be around VII to IX on the Mercalli scale, indicating severe to violent shaking that led to widespread damage and casualties in the region.
modified mercalli scale measure is type of seismograph that they made in the 1989
the modified mercalli scale was VII-VIII
Richter scale, Modified Mercalli scale, Centigrade scale, and the Moment Magnitude scale
different scales
The Richter scale
Mercalli is a scale for the measurement of earthquake intensities.
The size of an earthquake is measured on the Ricter scale it can also be measured on the Mercalli scale.For an example the 2008 earthquake in China was 7.8 on the Rictor scale and in was XI on the Mercalli scale
The Mercalli Intensity Scale is a measure of earthquake intensity experienced at a given location. The Kobe earthquake in 1995 had intensities reaching up to VIII (8) on the Mercalli Intensity Scale in the heavily affected areas around Kobe.
It, cannot be 15 because the Mercalli scale maxes up at XII (12) Which is total destruction.
TheRichter Scale created by Charles Richter and the Mercalli Scale created by Giuseppe Mercalli.
